Lasagna
My Mom usually adds in some extra sauce (Ragu) along with the 2 cans tomato paste and 2 cups water. She doesn't have specific measurements but we like lots of sauce!
Next time I will add more tomato paste and water or a can of spaghetti sauce. It was good but I like mine a little more saucy. I have been using this recipe for 25 years. We love it.
